最近看了《Jeremy Lin's UNTOLD Stories》,紀錄其中一段很印象深刻的內容

Josh Fan 問 Jeremy Lin 有沒有給後輩的任何意見,Jeremy Lin 提到 limiting beliefs(限制性信念)

I'll give a small example my whole life especially as a pro people are saying like oh you can't shoot you can't shoot.
我舉一個我職業生涯的小例子,尤其是作為職業選手,人們會說,哦,你不擅長投籃,你擅長投籃
so, what I tell myself I'm not a great shooter I'm not a great shooter and I was like yeah like
所以我告訴自己我不是一個好射手
and then it's not until I found a sports psychologist... they really like helped me reframe and rewire myself.
直到我找到了一位運動心理學家,幫助我我重新建構自己,告訴我
number one you're a great shooter.
第一,你是一名出色的射手
number two like just because you don't hit a couple doesn't mean that it's not your night.
第二,就算你現在沒有射中,也不代表你不是一個好射手
for me I started to re-shape my mindset and I was like i had to understand
number one what is your limiting belief. my limiting belief was I'm not a great shooter. then number two you have to replace that limiting belief with a new belief
我開始重塑我的心態,我必須明白我的限制性信念是什麼
第一,我的限制性信念是我覺得我不是一個偉大射手
第二,我必須用新的信念取代限制性信念
I started defining what a good shot and a bad shot was differently and I stopped looking at the result.
我開始重新定義什麼是好的投籃,好的投籃和糟糕的投籃是不同的,但我不再看結果
I just was like hey this is a shot I've worked on .I know I can make it. I shot it. that's a good shot.
如果我知道這是我一直努力/鑽研/準備好的一個出手時機(this is a shot I've worked on)
我覺得我能做到(I know i can make it)
而我投出去了(I shot it)
這就是一個好球 (that's a good shot.)

that was like what really helped me break through as a shooter.
而這真的幫助我突破成為一個 shooter

so now this is why you know when I went to the g league, I was number one in the g league in shooting efficiency.
所以這就是為什麼後來去了G聯賽時,我的投籃效率是G聯賽第一

我對那個 Good shot 的定義很有共鳴

I started defining what a good shot and a bad shot was differently and I stopped looking at the result.
我開始重新定義什麼是好的投籃,但我不再看結果
.....
this is a shot I've worked on
如果我知道,這就是我一直努力/鑽研/準備好的一個出手時機
I know i can make it.
而我覺得我能做到
I shot it.
而且我投出去了
that's a good shot.
那這就是一個好球
